Black Box 20ft GigaTrue 3 CAT6 Shielded Ethernet Patch Cable (Gray)

The Black Box C6PC70S-GY-20 is a 20 foot CAT6 Ethernet patch cable that pairs Gigabit speed with shielding that prevents electrical noise from corrupting data. It belongs to the GigaTrue 3 line, and every cable is factory tested to outperform the CAT6 standard.

An S/FTP construction places foil around each twisted pair and around the overall bundle, blocking EMI and RFI that often appear near motors, fluorescent lighting, or densely packed racks. Inside the RJ45 plugs, 50 micron gold-plated contacts keep resistance low, and the connectors are rated for about 750 insertion cycles, so routine moves and changes will not shorten the cable’s life.

The snagless plug includes a LockPORT boot that can accept optional locking or blocking keys. That added control is useful when you need to secure switch uplinks in a data center, prevent accidental unplugging in classrooms, or protect network drops in public areas.

Tested to 250 MHz, the cable supports 1000BASE-T for high-speed data as well as 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T equipment. It also carries PoE, letting you power access points, IP cameras, or VoIP phones without separate power lines. Whether you are a network administrator wiring a rack, an AV technician running uncompressed video, or a remote worker who wants a stable wired connection, this cable delivers dependable performance.
